Any team in the NFL would be better with Aaron Donald, but only the Los Angeles Rams had him, and when he left it was fair to wonder last offseason if the team could still contend at a high level? In their first season without the future Hall of Famer, the Rams showed with a certainty that they can compete without Donald.
The Rams posted the same 10-7 record as the year before, but also won in the postseason this time.
Now will L.A. be able to truly thrive as they go into Year 2 without AD?
